“…Finally, the Figure 9c shows the spectra for the S 2p species. In this case, two signals at 162.43 and 161.17 eV are observed, obtaining the ΔBE S = 1.26 eV in agreement with previous work of our group 38 . These signals correspond at S 2p 1/2 and S 2p 3/2 respectively and correspond to S 2 37 .…”

This work presents a two-step procedure to obtain thin films with a combination of CuSbS 2 and Cu 12 Sb 4 S 13 phases for study in thermoelectric applications. The procedure consisted of the physical evaporation of sulfides layers (Sb 2 S 3 and CuS) on glass substrates and the subsequent annealing of the samples in a N 2 atmosphere. The characterizations by Raman spectroscopy and XRD revealed that the samples presented a varied percentage of Cu 12 Sb 4 S 13 and CuSbS 2 . The results indicated that the percentage of phases depended on the initial thickness of the sulfide layers and the annealing temperature. The lower initial ratio between sulfide thicknesses and annealing temperature above 300 °C favored the formation of Cu 12 Sb 4 S 13 . However, the thermoelectric properties were improved when the phases coexisted in the thin film compared to samples with high percentages of Cu 12 Sb 4 S 13 . In this way, a sample with a power factor of 2.30 μW /cm• K 2 at 60 ºC was identified.
